Visa does not issue any credit cards of its own. Instead, it licenses the Visa brand to banks to issue the cards and then processes payments for them. To apply for a Visa, you have to apply at one of the banks that issues Visa cards. The largest banks that issue Visa cards are Bank of America, Capital One, Chase, and Wells Fargo.
So you've decided to get a Visa card. Now you just need to apply for one. You can't apply to Visa for one, though, because Visa doesn't actually issue credit cards.
